DBG VIP and Nashville Rock n Pod Expo donor Scott Smith joins us to celebrate Women’s History Month with Queens of Noize 3! While the rock genre is considered a man’s world by many, our guest is here to help dispel that myth. With this in mind, you are getting a unique audio experience this week. As proven by previous legends such as the Runaways, Lita Ford, Joan Jett, and others, the now and future…

I have a passion. Some would say an addiction. Downright crazy they may say. Even fucked up. Perhaps I do need help. For as many as understand, there are twice that that just don’t get it. I am a hard rock and heavy metal music fan. Let’s go back to addict. It’s not wrong. It makes me happy. More than that, its necessary to get through the day. Perhaps akin to that junkie with the…

The first ever Hair Metal Heaven Festival in Hull UK has wrapped up its inaugural run. I’m here to give you a brief synopsis from a Canadian who traveled the Atlantic for this first-time event. You may agree or disagree but these are my truthful and honest thoughts as I sit here days after the event has wrapped up. I certainly do not know all of the facts, not the ins and outs. I haven’t even…

At the end of August Decibel Geek website editor Rich “The Meister” Dillon will once again be on the move. The intrepid Canadian, who seems to attend every worldwide festival is this time off to the UK. Along with making appearances at not one, but two rock festivals our hero will also be “stalking” one of his favorite bands. While The Meister calls it going on tour with the band…it’s really nothing more than stalking…

A number of years ago, I watched as one of my all time favorite bands splintered apart in an intense and honestly ugly situation. For quite some time, years actually there was essentially 2 active versions of LA GUNS. I am not sure if they were the first band to create such a situation but they certainly weren’t the last. Great White, Queensryche and more recently Ratt have found themselves in similar situations. Some will…

Long time Decibel Geek contributors/staff writers/editors/occasional Podcast hosts Wally “Wallygator” Norton and Rich “The Meister” Dillon have unveiled their own show titled Canadian Geeks (with Beers) Chatting Metal Podcast. That’s quite a mouthful to spit out, so they also go by the acronym CGCM Podcast. The self-dubbed Hoser Heavy Metal Twins have overtaken the airwaves of Decibel Geek five years running to host the Thanksgiving episode in place of regular hosts Chris and Aaron. Now the…

I know a guy, yet I have never met him face to face, yet. He tells me how good this band is. So I go to see them because the opener is a local band that I love. Then since I am getting old and all, I decide to leave because I feel tired. Lame, I know. I missed the band he keeps raving about. Truthfully, I was tired from a long day. But realistically…

This week your favorite hosts are back to share their very favorite albums and songs of the past year with Best of 2015!
